Autorun Function Switched Itself Off

edited November 2006 in Science & Tech
Whenever i connect a USB device, or put in a disc, the autorun function doesn't load. I've checked my settings already, and they're all set accordingly. Anyone help?

For example, if I were to insert Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne's disc into my drive. It's supposed to pop up that autoplay, but it doesn't.

Another example. Slotting a USB Flash Disk into a USB port would normally cause a popup asking what you'd like to do. In my case, no popup. I'll have to manually access the drive.

    In "My Computer," right click each device and go to properties. View the autoplay tab. From there, you can set a default option or make it prompt you.

    Just a shot, my autoplay is disabled through TweakUI PowerToys. So if I right click on the drives and try to disable it there, it looks like it's set to run but the essentials are greyed out.

    You have PowerToys on there?
